Hopefully this money will actually get used to create new jobs in rebuilding the environment and is not going to be funneled into the corrupt outlets laden throughout Africa. As long as they can make sure the money gets put towards the project the future is looking green for Africa.

Prior to the legalization a Canadian judge fined a man $1 for housing and manufacturing 30 marijuana plants. Calling the laws obsolete and outdated he slammed all countries but especially Canada for what he called a very inane and petty crime, if any at all.
